The law states a police report is necessary if there’s personal injury or damage exceeds $1,000.

“What we had are students and adults that decided later on that they may have possibly been hurt, but at the time, when they were asked, they said no,” Davis said.

When EMS crews arrived at the school, 18 students were evaluated for injuries. One student was taken to a hospital.

Going forward, bus drivers will be required to immediately report any incident on the road to a district transportation director.

“We’re going to ask them to provide all the details to the director so the director can then also ask, independently, questions of them, and then they can make a joint decision as to whether they want to report it further, even if it doesn’t qualify under the state requirements for reporting,” Davis said.

The student who was taken to a hospital had minor injuries and was treated and released.
